Wazzup Pilipinas!
We are causing our very own extinction! Just by stepping out from our homes, it is already very evident from what we see around our neighborhood that we are in deep shit.
The streets are filled with all kinds of vehicles that pollutes the air. The rivers around the metro are stinky and dirty and could no longer sustain living creatures except for the harmful germs.
At a special advance screening for members of the media by Discovery Channel at the Bonifacio Global City Theaters in Taguig City, we've also learned of other facts which surprisingly very few people know about unless they are personally involved in the communities affected.
From the screening, we've witnessed how China has been involved in selling prohibited animal parts and even from endangered species. From sharks' fins to manta rays' gills, the country knows they are guilty of the illegal activities yet many of them are doing it because people, especially other countries, buy from them. So if we're thinking right now that China is solely to blame, then we are deadly wrong. Those who buy from these traders are equally responsible for the depletion of endangered animals. Many other marine life are decimated because of illegal and over-fishing. It these continue, it will be just around 100 years before many species we know become extinct.
